testimony yesterday concerning. mismanage-
mcnt in the Park Department. He not only
confirms Tax Commissioner Coleman's charges.
but he goes further and makes grave accusa-
tons against Commissioner Crmmins and
ex-Commlssloncr Beckman. Coming from a
Park Commissioner under oath, these charges
cannot be lightly treated
The channel of the Missouri River often
changes. but an alteration of two miles, such
as is threatened at Bismarck. would be serious
matter. The flood a. that point now is greater
than ever before known. and the water is still
rising. Perhaps the danger is less than the
public excite ment there indicates. but the
loss of some lives is probable, in addition to
tic large amount Of property destroyed.
1t would do the railroad companies no good
to oppose any class of customers with view
of making the Interstate Commerce law odiOus
and It is hardly probable that they would resort
to anything of the kind. Hence, in making
. new classification of dry-goods the trunk
line managers have doubtless been governed
by their Interpretation of the Interstate Com
merce law. The merchants regard the law
differently. This will be point for the Inter
state Commerce, Commission to settle But
for the public welfare and the business interests
Of the city it is 10 be Hoped that the trunk line
managers arc mistaken in this matter.
The debate on Irish measures in the House
of Commons will begin at once and promises
10 be lively. Mr.. Morley gave notice last night
that he would oppose the Governments motion
for precedence for It's coercive measure. whilst
no effcctual security is taken against the abuse
of the law by the exactiOn of excessive rents.
II will trouble the Liberal Unionlsts to give
good reason for voting against the Glad
stonians in this matter. So far as sympathy
and aid from this side can be OF use, the
Opposition will have plenty of it. The en-
thusiastc meeting in Cooper Institute last
night indicates the feelings of Americans on
this matter.
The bids for furnishing the Navy Depart
mcnt with steel for amor plates. ETC.. arc TO
be opened to-day providing any arc received.
But more had been handed in up to yesterday,
and this notwiths andng previous postpone
ments. II would not be surprising, consider
ing the way contractors have been treated by
the Department if no bids were offered. This
would be misfortune. 1t is probable that the
Department is right in suppOsing that no bids
have been handed In because the contractors
were not willing to trust the Department with
tbcir keeping over night. There is great need
of establishments in this country capable OF
producing armor plates and heavy gun forg-
ings, and to-day will show what manufacturers
are wiling to contract with the Government

Handsome Monument.

Mr.. w. b. Fenton, marble worker, this
city has just completed a handsome Italian
monument to the memory of the late Capt.
Jas /. Waddell The monument was put
in place this morning in the family lot in
the City Cemetery, and is beautiful
work of art, and the workmanship reflects
credit upon the man of marble. In the
same lot is also the monument of the late
VIM. T. Iglehart, similar in design and
of same material, by the same artist. 1t is
gratifying to note that it has only been of
late years that an artist of talent and
merit in this line of business has been
able to establish himself in our midst.
Ii eIetofore our citizens have had to go
els, where for every description of mar
bic work at a great cost Now the same
class of work can be done right at home
and under the personal supervision of the
purchaser at much less cost. The Jick-
ling monuments and others in the same
cemetery, are standing specimens of MIR.
Fenton's work. We are glad to see that
he has found sufficient encouragement
from our citizens TO establish himself in
the marble business in our city-an in
dustry entirely new in our midst. and we
hope that he may continue to merit the
patronage of every one needing his SER
vices in this line

The Bank Floor to lie Tiled.

The old reliable Farmers Bank of this
city, that has stood all the financial crises
of the country, and has always been able
to delare handsome dividend to its stock

that could be cast upon its officers, is
about to renew its old and worn out floor
with beautiful tile flooring in the near
future. The work of thing will be done
by ]. b. Fenton, marble worker. and the
concrete work by Mr.. Geo. Jewell. The

WHAT AMITO DO?

The symptoms of Biliousness are uu-
happily but too well. known. They differ
ia different individuals to some extent: A
bilious man is seldom a breakfast eater.
Too frequently. alas. he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning His tongue will hardly bear
inspection at any time; if it is not white
and furred, it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be symptom or the two may alternate
There are often Hemorrhoids or even loss
of blood. There may be giddiness and
often headache and acidity or flatulence
and tenderness in the pit of the stomach.
To correct all this if not effect cure try

and thousands attest its efficacy. For sale
